This product is really good if you have an oily skin like me, it helps to control oils on the face. this product should be used mainly in the T-Zone area because thats wgere we tend to produce more oil but if you wanna apply it all over your face fine. and if you know me you will know i love my mary kay products reason being that they are affordable (be careful not to buy fake tho) and they just work well with my skin
